I think you are doing great only giving him a bottle before bed. Most doctors recommend weaning from the bottle between 12-18 months. I think giving it to him as a comfort before bed will help him sleep better and longer. But if you are intent on getting rid of it all together, just get rid of it and make him use the sippy or whatever he uses during the day. If he really wants it he will drink from it whenever:) Good luck!
